In a letter to the Comhairle dated 23rd Janaury, 1986,
the Department of Health, in the light of pending consultant
vacancies in general surgery in the Western Health Board
area, suggested that "it would be appropriate at t'his stage,
to carry out a full examination of the requirements in
surgery at Galway and this examination might usefully be
extended ·to the Western Health Board area as a whole".
The Comhairle agreed to undertake a review of surgical
services and, for this purpose, appointed a sub-committee
whose membership comprised seven members of the Comhairle
(including four surgeons, one physician, one anaesthetist
and one .administrator) and the Chief Officer.
